I can't stand loading straight trucks. They're way too small. Belly dumps are the chiznit milling. Side dumps are darn good also.

Due to space constrictions they were at times only 6 inches way. I usually prefer 3 feet or more.

Maybe, if you'd widen the road, there'd be more room!! :roll: :roll: :lol:

Seriously.... I always thought of construction equipment (pavers, millers, I don't know the names...) as being Heavy Equipment driven by Heavy Equipment Operators. Silly question, I guess.... but do all these machines, as well as earth movers, graders, and bulldozers, require a CDL-A??

Hope you're not paid by the MILE!! And watch out for the cops! You might get a ticket at 85-90 fph!!

Only if it's on a trailer and you moving it. Otherwise no license of any sort is required.

I'm susposed to be more concerned about millings, flying out of trucks, and weight :roll: .

Well you sure wouldn't like loading some of the hired trucks dad runs. He's got this one guy with a tandem GMC with about 12' dump body. :shock:

Update time. Do I ever miss the internet. :lol:

Did some bridge decks. Take 1 3/4 inches off, first pass them take 1/4 off till all the latex overlay is off. Let's put it lightly it sucked. I hate concrete.

Going was slow, and only had a loader on hand so, it was the dump truck for all four bridges. This is on I-90 by Sioux Falls, SD.



Sand blasting truck.


Checking to see if latex is still visable. Cleaner than using water.


Close to the edge :shock:

Pictures of the old 450 with a shop built four foot cutter.

Currently working on I-90 Between Rapid City and Sturgis.
